Over 100 Memorial Rides Planned to Honor Alex Pretti
PB went the way of most other news conglomerates when they were acquired by Outside. They were mostly apolitical 5-7 years ago but that's not the case any longer. It is unfortunate we can't enjoy sports or hobbies these days without people getting so torqued about politics. I mean, look at how the bike industry cried about import fees in the last year like they were just cruising along with high profits and one little thing crushed them.

Ryan Gilchrist & Luca Shaw to Race Red Bull Hardline Tasmania
@succulentsausage: Definitely less subjective and more like a DH event.

Gravaa Declares Bankruptcy After Low Sales of Its On-Board Tire Inflator
@Patrick9-32: Blaming the industry or market is a way to duck responsibility for failure. The bike industry has always had ups and downs, some ideas stick, others do not. When things are booming no one says, "it isn't a very great product but we're successful because of the strong market."

Raaw Updates Madonna & Jibb LT
love that they keep doing external routing but think they could definitely make it look better for a three thousand dollar alloy frame. My Canfield was $1000 less and a much more versatile suspension platform. And the SJ alloy had so much more to offer as well. Don't see the value in their brand.

The New Forbidden Heathen is a Titanium Hardtail With Proportionate Chainstays
That everyone over the past 5 years has launched Ti hardtails can't be a coincidence. Makes me wonder if the cost of titanium went cheap or if the international association of bicycle marketing identified it as the next bandwagon. Had a Litespeed hardtail in 1997... don't ever want or need a titanium bike again.

Spotted: New Ohlins Coil Shock on Finn Iles's Specialized Demo
Very niche. Most people aren't close enough to a bike park to justify a DH bike. And those that are only a small number probably ride at the park enough or aggressively enough to justify. Just like I wouldn't buy a Jeep Rubicon when my AWD Mazda tackles off roading sufficient for my purposes.

Brett Rheeder’s Brand 'Signature' Launches Entra Component Line
@mackster23: Deity had some great components but I think the bottom line is there are just so many branded parts by small companies or bigger companies that have their own OE parts. As a consumer I can say there's probably no difference between a Pivot bar, a Title bar, a Deity bar, or a Trek bar. Maybe there's a nanometer of difference but not so much that we need more people to make stuff in Taiwan and then spin it with a bunch of hype.

Route Announced for Trans Caledonia, Scotland’s First Multi-Day Enduro
Are not all "enduro" races multi day... That is more than one day. Just call it a tourduro.
